Jordan Macdonald won’t be available for us next Friday in the Calum Riddell Cup, however we will let him off as he will be entering and smashing the Highland Cross 🏃‍♂️ 🚲

“Highland Cross is a 50 mile duathlon (walking or running 20 miles and cycling 30 miles) across Scotland from Kintail to Beauly. The event is organised by volunteers to raise funds for charities across the Highlands. Since 1983, over £6.3m has been raised and distributed in full to deserving causes.”

I’m sure Jordan will appreciate any support you can give and we will be backing him all the way, best of luck Jord you’ll smash it 👊

Next 2️⃣ weeks we have a break from the league, with some teams entering the Calum Riddel cup preliminary rounds on Tuesday before we enter the 1st round on Friday.

The winners go onto the semi final next Tuesday and the winners of that go onto face FC Thistle in the final next weekend 👀

We host Carisbrooke at the Riverside, the teams met earlier on in the season and it finishes 5-5! Goals galore ⚽️

Another game with plenty of positives but a lot of frustration, including conceding from 3 corner kicks. it’s not been our season this year but plenty of time to turn things round 💯

Thank you to Elgin Thistle for the game
